Almost 50,000 students at British universities have been caught cheating in the past three years amid fears of a plagiarism “epidemic” fuelled disproportionately by foreign students, The Times can reveal.

Students from outside the EU were more than four times as likely to cheat in exams and coursework, according to an investigation into academic misconduct based on more than 100 freedom of information requests.

Nobody care about cheating in exams?


Do you want to be treated by a doctor who only qualified through cheating..?

I'm surprised the figures are as high as that, and I'd like to know more about the specifics of this cheating. I can't read the whole article without signing up though - perhaps that's why not many people have commented?
